Winged infants of universal appeal, full of mystery and delight, cherubs remind us of hope and beauty. Witnesses of cherub sightings speak of the warmth they bestow, their luminous glow, and the love that radiates from these childlike angels. No one knows where they dwell, but one thing is universal: the thought of their existence makes us feel save.
Here is a collection of some of the finest depictions of cherubs as they have been envisioned by poets, writers and artists around the world and throughout the ages. From the golden gods of the Greeks to the chubby babes of Medieval Europe and the winged messengers of today.
This is a heartwarming celebration of human faith and celestial love.
